Monitoring memory usage ...

[Remote_User]

Hi All,
I am trying to check the memory usage for a process using C#
(.NET 1.1). I found out several properties in the Process class that
was useful. But, my question is after i tried that out and compared
the result with that indicating in the Windows Task Manager they
didn't match?

Could anyone suggest any other options?

Thanks..

Hello Remote_User,

Use performance counters http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x2tyfybc.aspx

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the reply. But, in the msdn link you
provided, it was mainly referring to the counters that refers to the
Garbage Collector.

Thanks.

So, while you're googling for yourself, and in addition to performance
counters, you might also search for WMI and WQL which also give you
extensive access to hardware, OS, etc info.

Hi,
I have to use .NET 1.1 and WMI/WQL are for .NET 2.0 and higher.

The value reported by Task Manager is the Working Set. This is very
different from what you think it is.

For figuring out your .Net memory consumption, use the .Net Performance
Counters.

If you're trying to figure out where you memory is going, use a Memory
Profiler, such as the one from Scitech.
